Lady Gaga has been blasted by PETA for dressing up her dog.
The 'Applause' hitmaker has come under heavy criticism from the animal charity for her treatment of pet pooch Asia, who has been seen wearing weighty jewellery and earrings.
PETA said: "Lady Gaga may choose to decorate herself with elaborate and even uncomfortable outfits, but Asia doesn't get to make that choice.
"Although it seems pretty clear that Lady Gaga loves Asia, we think Asia - and all dogs - are adorable without all the added flair."
Their comments come after the 28-year-old pop star - famous for her extravagant and outrageous style - posted photos on Instagram which showed the pup wearing a heavy necklace on its face.
PETA have been joined by other animal rights groups in criticising Gaga for her actions.
Dog's Trust veterinary director Paula Boyden added: "We are shocked to see the pictures of his puppy adorned with heavy jewellery.
"Dressing dogs in pseudo-human clothing not only ridicules and makes a spectacle of them but treats them as a fashion accessory rather than a living animal."

Harrison Ford feels "like a battered" old car after throwing himself at movie stunts.
The 'Star Wars' actor - who was recently injured on the set of the sci-fi saga - compared himself to a classic motor and admitted he brings it on himself due to his dedication.
Speaking to the Daily Express newspaper, he quipped: "I am like a battered old Ford.
"And I keep on coming back for more. If it doesn't look real on the screen than an audience does not believe what it sees."
The star - who was talking about his stunts before his latest injury occurred - insisted he is starting to know how to stop himself from getting too badly "hurt".
He explained: "Although i do my own running, jumping and falling, I always try to keep myself from being hurt. So I know what will work and what won't."
Meanwhile, he also admitted he never expected his big screen career to last as long as it has done.
He said: "I honestly never thought my acting would last thing long. All I've done is try to get scripts which interest me and make sure I prepare as well as I possibly can.
"After that, it's a matter of hoping that people like what they see and keep on going back. It's not an 'art'. I simply enjoy it as a great job."

Simon Cowell has deliberately created tension between the 'X Factor' judges.
It is said this year's panel - completed by Louis Walsh, Cheryl Cole and Mel B - is already strained, and it has been orchestrated by the media mogul.
An insider on the show's production team told The Sun newspaper: "So far the atmosphere has not been great to say the least.
"The only person who gets on with everyone is Simon but it's as if he is deliberately letting the fires build by being late and making everyone grumpy.
"Pretty much every single member of the panel - apart from Simon - clearly didn't want the other judges chosen for this year's show ... The theory is that his plan is to create havoc on the judging panel."
According to reports, the explosive panel has been put together to instill a sense of drama into the show, which "has started to run its course".
The source added: "[Simon's] the first to admit the show has started to run its course and it's harder to get viewers to engage with the acts.
"However, what does work are fights between the judges. He knows what he is doing. He loves being the master puppeteer."

'Mrs. Brown's Boys' star Brendan O'Carroll is hoping to buy a stake in David Beckham's soccer franchise.
The British TV star is a big fan of the sport and lives in Florida - where the legend's new club will be based - and he is keen to support his soon-to-be local team.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I'm hoping to buy into it. I'd love the US to do well at soccer as it would be so good for the game.
"It used to be a girls' game in America, but interest in soccer has really grown."
However, Brendan - who is worth £8 million - has ruled out a comedy collaboration with David, insisting he just isn't "funny" enough.
He said: "Beckham is not really funny."
Earlier this year, the comedy actor blasted his own critics, describing them a "donkey" rather than a "racehorse".
He ranted: "F**k them! I do respect critics. I know they've got a job to do, but they'll always be a donkey telling the racehorse how he should have won the race.
"If they want to be a racehorse, run the race! Anyone can criticise me all they like, but as long as they write [about it], f**k off."

Emily Blunt thinks her baby daughter is a good "travel buddy".
The 31-year-old actress took her four-month-old daughter Hazel, whom she shares with her husband John Krasinski, with her when she promoted her new movie 'Edge of Tomorrow' earlier this month and she insists the tiny tot is settling into her new jet-setting life.
Speaking to Ireland's RTÉ Ten, she said: "She's a good little travel buddy. It's tough to leave and go and work as this is my first time back since she was born but I just see her whenever I can and every hour, any moment, I have free she's with me and it's alright."
Meanwhile, the blonde beauty recently admitted that since becoming a mother her priorities have changed and she's going to be more selective about the roles she takes on in the future.
She said previously: "I think I'll be very specific about what I do because it does switch your focus and everything in me just wants to be with her right now so it'll be interesting."

Jake Gyllenhaal thinks Rachel McAdams is the "complete package".
The 'Brokeback Mountain' actor recently fuelled rumours he is dating the 35-year-old actress - with whom he is currently filming 'Southpaw' - after they were spotted out together on a number of occasions, and friends say they were instantly attracted to each other.
A source said: "There is no denying the electric chemistry between Jake and Rachel. The attraction was instant. From the moment they started working together, Jake and Rachel just connected intellectually and emotionally.
"For Jake, Rachel is the complete package. She's incredibly smart and well versed in arts, politics and culture, but she's not a show-off. Of course, it helps that she's gorgeous."
However, the duo are hesitant about taking their romance to the next level because Jake, 33, has had an on/off relationship with model Alyssa Miller since last summer, and Rachel is dating music manager Patrick Sambrook.
The insider told OK! magazine: "They are tip-toeing around the issue, but with them hanging out with each other all the time, the situation is bound to come to a head.
"For the time being, Rachel and Jake are in the flirting stages."

Nicole Richie gets up an hour before her children.
The House of Harlow designer - who has daughter Harlow, six, and son Sparrow, four, with husband Joel Madden - thinks it's important to get some alone time away from her kids, so she wakes up earlier than them to watch the sun rise every day.
She told People magazine: "I am up before the sun every morning. I like a good hour by myself while everyone is still sleeping. I go out in the garden, relax and have some hot water with lemon. Just take some quiet time before I start my day."
The reality TV star, 32, has recently developed a love of gardening in the mornings and admits she's turned her back yard into a vegetable patch to encourage her family to eat raw foods.
She said previously: "I just started growing our own garden. I'm home a lot and we're growing our own fruits and vegetables.There's so many things in food right now and it's important for people to know and be educated on whatever they're putting into their body."
However, it's not just Nicole's determination to eat healthily that is impressive as her choice of outfit while planting her seeds and bulbs couldn't be more fitting.
She said: "I love wearing my little vintage peasant dresses, but I garden in the morning and I'm really cold in the morning. I end up with a North Face [jacket], my husband's baseball cap, colourful sweatpants that I slept in the night before, and leopard slippers."

Lily Allen gave her Glastonbury ticket allocation to random villagers rather than needy friends.
The 'Hard Out Here' singer is set to perform at the iconic music festival next week and she didn't want to give her free passes to people who "never really appreciate it".
Speaking to DJ Nick Grimshaw on Radio 1's Breakfast Show, she explained: "I get a certain allocation, and because I am on the Pyramid [main] stage you get more.
"My husband has been in charge of ticket allocation. I have quite a lot of blaggy friends who hit me up for stuff all the time and never really appreciate it. I have all the calls, 'Can we have some tickets?'
"He has given them all to our villagers. There's, like, 25 kids from Canham who have never been to Glastonbury and who are going to have such a shock, and all my showbiz mates are like, 'Er?' "
The 29-year-old singer has also revealed she has been to the festival every year except one, and would swap Christmas for the chance to be there.
She said: "I go in hard. I was six-weeks-old the first time I went. I mean I would trade Christmas for Glastonbury.
"I didn't go once. But yeah I've been every year, even when I was preggers."

Allison Janney has confirmed talks to appear in 'Finding Dory'.
The 54-year-old actress, who voiced the ochre starfish Peach in 2003's hit Disney-Pixar animation 'Finding Nemo', admits there has been some discussion about reprising the role in the upcoming sequel which will focus on Ellen DeGeneres' character.
She said: "I hope so ... God, I hope Peach comes back! I'm sure she'll have a cameo at the very least.
"I think there has been some discussion going on.
"It was amazing to be part of that, it was a brilliant film."
'Finding Dory' was first announced in April 2013 when Ellen DeGeneres confirmed she would be back to voice loveable Pacific regal blue tang Dory.
She said at the time: "I have waited for this day for a long, long, long, long, long, long time. I'm not mad it took this long. I know the people at Pixar were busy creating 'Toy Story 16'. But the time they took was worth it. The script is fantastic. And it has everything I loved about the first one: It's got a lot of heart, it's really funny, and the best part is, it's got a lot more Dory."
'Finding Dory' is set for release in June 2016.

Kasabian's Serge Pizzorno admits he doesn't know any of Metallica's music.
The 'Eez-eh' hitmakers will be headlining the Glastonbury festival alongside Arcade Fire and the legendary heavy metal band next week and they think the group are a "controversial" booking.
Serge said: "Metallica, they're massive. I'm being entirely honest with you, I don't really know their tunes but they're massive.
"They've been doing it for a long time, so they'll have a few tricks up their sleeves. It's been quite a controversial choice but I think that can also work in your favour. I've met Lars [Ulrich], the drummer. He came to a show of ours in San Francisco and was a lovely chap, so I wish him all the best."
However, the band - also made up of Tom Meighan, Chris Edwards and Ian Matthews - have been checking out Arcade Fire and are a fan of their album 'Reflektor'.
Serge told NME magazine: "I've only seen little bits of pictures and stuff but they seem like their live show is interesting. They seem like a great band for a Friday night."

Chelsea Handler says Russell Brand was her worst-ever chat show guest.
The 'Chelsea Lately' host claims the British comic is the only interviewee to have been a "pain in the ass" during her seven-year stint on the show, and he caused havoc on set by disrupting filming schedules.
She told Britain's Grazia magazine: "The only person who was a pain in the ass was Russell Brand. I would never want him back.
"He stopped all of our production schedules because he needed three espressos before he could even come on for his interview."
Chelsea is stepping down from her show in August and is relieved to be getting the chance to talk about something else as she is so tired of celebrity culture.
She added: "Anything but the Kardashians interest me. Anything that exists within real culture - that's what I'm interested in now.
"I could have had a choice not to talk about the Kardashians on my show but people tune in for me making fun of everybody. It's what I do.
"And now I want to do things differently. I'll be announcing a new show soon."

Kate Hudson's biggest luxury in life is spending quality time with her family.
The 'Bride Wars' actress - who has two-year-old son Bingham with her fiancé Matt Bellamy, and 10-year-old Ryder with her ex-husband, musician Chris Robinson - savours every moment she spends at home with her kids because her job so often requires her to be apart from them.
Asked what her biggest luxury was, Kate replied: "Time at home to be with my kids. I travel so much that that's a big one. And when I am at home, time to sit alone with myself for a few minutes, just be quiet and refocus my energies. That's very important to me."
Kate's own parents, Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson, divorced when she was just 18 months old, and the actress has always looked to Goldie's long-term partner Kurt Russell, who she calls 'Pa', as a father figure.
Kurt has taken on a very hands-on role with Kate's children and the 35-year-old star can't get over what a "cool grandad" he is.
She told Britain's HELLO! magazine: "You have to work on it. My parents are a great help. They live close by so they'll come over and take them for breakfast, which is great - the kids see their grandparents and I get my moment alone."
"My Pa is a revelation. When my brothers Oliver and Wyatt and I were growing up, he was a real tough, strong dad - he was loving and affectionate, but he was also really strict. With his grandchildren, he's the exact opposite.
"He spoils them about everything from food to staying up late. He loves being the cool grandad."
